# Class PixelAudio

java.lang.Object
net.paulhertz.pixelaudio.PixelAudio

public class PixelAudio extends Object

Author:
  Paul Hertz PixelAudio library for Processing. Typical usage in Processing is to declare a global: PixelAudio pixelaudio; and then initialize it in the setup method: public void setup() { // ... pixelaudio = new PixelAudio(this); // ... more setup code } The host PApplet can be obtained from PixelAudio by other classes. A number of useful static variables and methods are also included.
